Hi,
gsd-backlight-helper seems to make a wrong decision on which backlight to modify/the correct node is missing. The hotkeys for changing the screen brightness don't work on Asus UX32VD. The brightness is stuck between two values with the hotkeys (about 95% and 90%)
gsd-backlight-helper sets /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/apple_backlight/brightness which doesn't change anything :
# strace -e write,open /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-backlight-helper --set-brightness 10 2>&1|tail -n 2
open("/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness", O_WRONLY) = 3
write(3, "10", 2) = 2
manually setting the brightness like this doesn't work :
# echo 5 > /sys/devices/pci0000\:00/0000\:00\:01.0/0000\:01\:00.0/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
setting the brightness using intel_backlight works well :
# strace -e write,open /usr/bin/intel_backlight 100 2>&1|tail -n 4
open("/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:02.0/resource0", O_RDWR|O_CLOEXEC) = 4
write(1, "current backlight value: 100%\nse"..., 52current backlight value: 100%
set backlight to 100%
) = 52
manually setting the brightness like this works :
# echo 50 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:00\:02.0/backlight/acpi_video1/brightness
